GAZA: May 7, 2008

A Palestinian runs to fill his cooking gas canister from a gas station in Gaza May 6, 2008.


Gaza has been in the grips of a fuel shortage for weeks, the result of sharp Israeli cutbacks in supplies to the Hamas-controlled territory as well as a strike by an association of Palestinian petrol owners over Israeli supply limits.
